  • In this article, we present a numerical scheme for solving singularly perturbed (i.e. highest -order derivative term multiplied by small parameter) Burgers-Huxley equation with appropriate initial and boundary conditions. Most of the traditional methods fail to capture the effect of layer behavior when small parameter tends to zero. The presence of perturbation parameter and nonlinearity in the problem leads to severe difficulties in the solution approximation. To overcome such difficulties the present numerical scheme is constructed. In construction of the numerical scheme, the first step is the dicretization of the time variable using forward difference formula with constant step length. Then, the resulting non linear singularly perturbed semidiscrete problem is linearized using quasi-linearization process. Finally, differential quadrature method is used for space discretization. The error estimate and convergence of the numerical scheme is discussed. A set of numerical experiment is carried out in support of the developed scheme.

  • We used the surface photovoltage spectroscopy(SPVS) for characterization of GaAs/Al\ulcornerGa\ulcornerAs multi-quantum well(MQW) structures grown by molecular beam epitaxy(MBE) method. Energy gap related transitions in GaAs and AlGaAs were observed. The Al composition(x=0.3) was determined by Sek's composition formula. Transition energies in MQW were determined using the differential surface photo-volatage spectroscopy)DSPVS) of the measured resonanced. In order to indentify the transitions, the experimentally observed energies were compared with results of the envelope function approximation for a rectangular quantum well. We have observed and interesting behavior of the temperature dependence(80K~300K) of the 11Hand 11L transition for sample.

  • In many problems concerned with statistical inferences, it will be of interest to compute tail areas rather than densities. But, it is often hard to calculate the exact tail probability. Saddlepoint approximation formula to the tail probability of a smooth function of random cector is developed by DiCiccio and Martin(1991). Applications of this method to stress-strength model are considered in this paper. To obtain the generalized p-values suggested by Tsui and Weerahandi(1989), we need to calculate complicated multiple integration. However, DiCiccio and Martin's(1991) results offer a convenient method to approximate these very accurately. For many artificial data sets, we access the accuracy of DiCiccio and Martin's by comparing the approximate value with the exact one.

  • Molecular electronegativity (EN) values are calculated employing the density functional definition of EN: the negative of the chemical potential in the density functional theory. Calculations are limited to the use of valence electrons (valence electron approximation). Our formula for the EN is given in terms of Hartree-Fock(HF) orbital energies. Resulting EN values for molecules as well as atoms exhibit a remarkable correlation with other existing scales. For molecules, we have achieved electronegativity equalization principle (Sanderson's principle).

  • Galerkin's finite element method is applied to a two-dimensional heat convection-diffusion problem arising in the hydrodynamic lubrication of thrust bearings used in naval vessels. A parabolized thermal energy equation for the lubricant, and thermal diffusion equations for both bearing pad and the collar are treated together, with proper juncture conditions on the interface boundaries. it has been known that a numerical instability arises when the classical Galerkin's method, which is equivalent to a centered difference approximation, is applied to a parabolic-type partial differential equation. Probably the simplest remedy for this instability is to use a one-sided finite difference formula for the first derivative term in the finite difference method. However, in the present coupled heat convection-diffusion problem in which the governing equation is parabolized in a subdomain(Lubricant), uniformly stable numerical solutions for a wide range of the Peclet number are obtained in the numerical test based on Galerkin's classical finite element method. In the present numerical convergence errors in several error norms are presented in the first model problem. Additional numerical results for a more realistic bearing lubrication problem are presented for a second numerical model.

  • In this paper, the physics-based analytical model of transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD)-based double-gate (DG) tunneling field-effect transistors (TFETs) is proposed. The proposed model is derived by using the two-dimensional (2-D) Landauer formula and the Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin (WKB) approximation. For improving the accuracy, nonlinear and continuous lateral energy band profile is applied to the model. 2-D density of states (DOS) and two-band effective Hamiltonian for TMD materials are also used in order to consider the 2-D nature of TMD-based TFETs. The model is validated by using the tight-binding non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF)-based quantum transport simulation in the case of monolayer molybdenum disulfide ($MoS_2$)-based TFETs.

Therefore in an initial model of this study after doing parameter design from the background of shape using topology optimization. and it is making a approximation formula using by the CFD-structure coupled-field analysis and design of experiment. By using this result, we conducted multi-objective optimization. We could confirm efficiency of stochastic method applicable in the scene of structure reliability design to be needed multi-objective optimization. And we presented a way of design that could overcome the time and space restriction in structural design such as the butterfly valve with the less experiment.

  • In this paper, a thickness compensation function is introduced to consider the shear deformation and warping effect resulting from increased thickness in the composite multi-cell wing box. The thickness compensation function is used to perform the structure optimization of the multi-cell. It is determined by minimizing the error of an analytical formula using solid mechanics and the Ritz method. It is used to define a structural performance prediction expression due to the increase in thickness. The parameter is defined by the number of spars and analyzed by the critical buckling load and the limited failure index as a response. Constraints in structural optimization are composed of displacements, torsional angles, the critical buckling load, and the failure index. The objective function is the mass, and its optimization is performed using a genetic algorithm.

  • In this paper, we introduce and study the concept of trigonometrically quasi-convex function. We prove Hermite-Hadamard type inequalities for the newly introduced class of functions and obtain some new Hermite-Hadamard inequalities for functions whose first derivative in absolute value, raised to a certain power which is greater than one, respectively at least one, is trigonometrically quasi-convex convex. We also extend our initial results to functions of several variables. Next, we point out some applications of our results to give estimates for the approximation error of the integral the function in the trapezoidal formula.

  • Many numerical methods have been developed since 1961, but unresolved issues remain. This study developed a numerical method to address these issues and determine the coefficients and properties of rotational waves with a shear current in a finite water depth. The number of unknown constants was reduced significantly by introducing a wavelength-independent coordinate system. The reference depth was calculated independently using the shooting method. Therefore, there was no need for partial derivatives with respect to the wavelength and the reference depth, which simplified the numerical formulation. This method had less than half of the unknown constants of the other method because Newton's method only determines the coefficients. The breaking limit was calculated for verification, and the result agreed with the Miche formula. The water particle velocities were calculated, and the results were consistent with the experimental data. Dispersion relations were calculated, and the results are consistent with other numerical findings. The convergence of this method was examined. Although the required series order was reduced significantly, the total error was smaller, with a faster convergence speed.
